So, last week my mother committed suicide...

Velvet
Micky is right, humbled indeed.
I was going to wish you strength, but it is plain to see you have much, instead I'll wish for the love and support shown in this thread to find it's way to you when you most need it.
I have no words to express how I feel, know that you are cared for.

If my story was on a TV soap I'd be the first to denounce it as ridiculously over the top. People have just been shaking their heads in total disbelief.

It is nice to hear you are still fighting on, though it would have been lovely if you had not been dealt so much in so short a period of time. You are a fighter and so you will make it. LOL, I know what you mean about the shaking heads thing.....I have developed a habit of downplaying and editing the events over the past 2 years of my life and still get the head shaking thing happening. Worst was being told I need to stop being so independent and ask others for help by 2 workers who repeatedly forget to do what they promise me on the couple of occasions I have decided to give it a go...lol, they don't get that if I didn't keep going and doing what has to be done my life would have ended a long time ago. Hang in there and know you can handle anything life lays at your feet.

Good to hear from you but my God what a dreadful time of it you've had! Reading it has left a feeling of stunned disbelief that anyone could go through so much in so short a time. I truly hope that 2007 is kinder for you.

 

[mickyp123]

Haemhorage lol, still what's wrong with an odd "r" chucked in.

Velvet to nit pick you said the staff were being great because you were a nurse yourself, V you ARE still very much a nurse with loads more to give.

I am sure you and Vixen will go on, and the bond you have goes deep and as for being jealous, even you can't be a total saint lol.

As Catalina say's velvet you are a fighter and no one can deny that, also you are blessed with a highly philosophical outlook which has seen you through.

I am sure 2007 will be a good year for you because you will make it so, wery shortly you will be able to close the door on the most awful year of your life.

I have always considered 7 to be a lucky number, although I know you will achieve on your own merit, i hope a bit of luck eases your way.
Be assured at the stroke of midnight i will be thinking of you and wishing you well, also i have a very strong feeling that i will not be alone, so draw positive energy from that and have a truly incredible year

PS, Sometimes being humbled can do a world of good, and you have done that to quite a few people as well as me so......Thankyou

Don't worry, nobody does. People are often shy of approaching the bereaved and saying hello but in addition I've been half dead myself for months. It's more than enough to just say hi and express an interest.

If my story was on a TV soap I'd be the first to denounce it as ridiculously over the top. People have just been shaking their heads in total disbelief.

What a year you have had Velvet.
Cat is right you are amazingly strong to cope with all that has been thrown at you.
I hope you find a place to live soon and start to make your way forward from such a difficult time.

 

[bustyblondebombshell]

Velvet, I've been worried by your absence, but least now I know you are ok.

I'm glad you are on the road to recovery.

You know where I am if you need to talk, I'm still here, and always have a listening ear.

Lets hope 2007 shows kindness for you, and till that shows up, I'm sending some love to compensate

Regards to Vixen.

 

[VelvetDarkness]

Thanks so much guys. I hope that everyone finds what they're looking for in 2007 - even YOU Micky

i wish pain didnt hurt so much

dear velvet darkness:

i've spent a long night feeling sorry for myself - and i still do - and will -

but i came across your thread and if it means anything your accounting of the entire ordeal with your mother has been medicine for me -

i'm facing a divorce and also my mother is on her way out - and i know i'll be the one to find her - and she don't care !

death - the one subject we still have trouble discussing because the more sure we think we are about our beliefs, the more unsure we sound - and we do it with great conviction.

anyway - i'm curious as to how you are coping - so im reading you.

regards -

Thanks hon, good to be here and touch base with everyone. Am hoping for some longer time on the net so I can write more but am doing this post by WAP phone which I get charged for.

Hope everybody's doing OK

I have got a place lined up to move into now, although it's in quite a bad neighbourhood. Should be in and settled by the end of the month. It'll be intensely boring for a while and then in a few months I can start looking for work again. So I'm getting there.

good to hear you found a place...just take extreme caution since it is not in a great neighborhood.....I am so glad to see you are feeling better...*hugs* darling one

 

[short_circutz]

I don't know even where to start with a response. I haven't been around a lot lately, and just ran across this. Readiong what you were going through actually brought tears to my eyes.

You are stong. I don't think I'd have dealt with it as well as you have.

It looks liek things are starting to come together for you though. It's obvious you have a lot of lit friends, and my thoughts are with you as well.

Stay strong.

Travis

 

[sortacurious]

I don't know you (in fact, I don't think I've ever really read or posted in the section of Lit before) but I just read most of your thread and wanted to post some kind of response.

My little brother committed suicide a couple years ago, and I still find myself discovering new levels of grief. The subsequent months seemed to be a series of personal blows and lows like I'd never experienced before. Not exactly your same situation, but close enough to understand many of the things you've had to endure and are still coping with.

I just wanted to reach out to you in some way, and offer any support and encouragement I can. I'm so sorry you are going through all this.

 

[Amora]

HUgs and love to you Velvet

I am fairly new to Lit but I wanted to send my deepest condolences and positive energies to you hun.

You have dealt with more in the last four/5 months than many people could cope with in 2 years.

Just know I am sending hugs your way

Amora

 

[angelkitty7888]

Since i haven't seen or heard anything from this corner of the forum i thought i'd come ask how Velvet is.....

So Velvet! How are you doing hun? you got an appartment so how is the new place treating you? (i realize it might be quite a while before you answer considering you probably don't have internet ;^_^) just want to know how you are

in otherwords i guess you could call this a glorified bump..... based on my curiosity of course

 

[mickyp123]

So when's my next year of the goat dragonpants? Think I'm due some luck.

Thankyou all for your kind thoughts

Are you ready for this??........2015 is the next year of the Goat, so don't wait, put your head down, take this year and run with it. You know you can

 

[mickyp123]

Thinking of you V xxx and a bump for your thread

 

[gypziedoll]

Thinking of you Velvet..I hope things have settled for you and you are feeling better these days....*hugs and kisses* to you Darlin Heart

 

[Sassyfrass]

Thinking of you on this day Velvet and sending you hugs
